7:00 pm
welcome to the daily global, where we'll bring you the top stories from around the world. donald trump is making history once again as the only former president to be charged with a federal crime. these are live pictures from the wilkie ferguson courthouse, in downtown miami. specifically these are protesters who are there to support mr trump as he arrived a few minutes ago. we are expecting potentially, and i mean potentially because i don't know whether this will happen, but i'm being told there is a chance that mr trump may come out of his car as he exits the building to do a walk about with some of these pro—trump supporters. but again, i say that very carefully because we aren't sure what's happening. this is a developing story, we don't know
7:01 pm
exactly what mr trump's team, his supporters have in mind, but we will of course be keeping across these pictures outside the courthouse. just to remind you of what he's alleged to have done, why mr trump is here today. he's alleged to have had files, to have kept files in his florida estate — some of these files classified. some of the most damning documents including information about the us�*s nuclear programmes. files with classified information about defence and weapons capabilities of both the united states and foreign countries. other documents highlighted the defence weaknesses and vulnerabilities of the us and its allies to military attacks. and plans for any response to that type of foreign aggression. the a9—page indictment also lays out how the former president showed documents to people without clearance, despite knowing
7:02 pm
they were still classified. i think we can now cross to miami and bring in nomia iqbal, who's there for us. we see these live pictures from outside the courthouse, we expect mr trump to come out any minute. i've just laid out a rough idea of what he's accused of — what do we expect to be happening inside the courtroom behind those people?— happening inside the courtroom behind those people? well, he will no behind those people? well, he will i o u . behind those people? well, he will no u- to behind those people? well, he will 90 up to the _ behind those people? well, he will go up to the tenth _ behind those people? well, he will go up to the tenth floor, _ behind those people? well, he will go up to the tenth floor, we - behind those people? well, he will| go up to the tenth floor, we believe where he will be arraigned before he's actually processed. so will he test you will go into the chief justice's court, have the charges laid out against him, then plead not guilty. you will be fingerprinted and there will not be a mug shot, though one federal prosecutor said to me it is normal to have a mug shot taken, even though we will
7:03 pm
never see it, we will get a official photo of donald trump in one of his official portraits. then he believed the courthouse. you mentioned there that he is expected to give and walk about — we don't know, he's donald trump, he does what he wants, he's pretty spontaneous, so it's likely he could do that. we aren't100% sure, but once he does leave, at some point he will fly out of the state of florida and head towards bedminster, newjersey. this is his second home effectively. interestingly bedminster comes up in the indictment, by the way, it's mentioned six times, he's accused of taking classified documents there. later this evening he'll be making some comments, he's expected — he's already been doing it, but he's expected to start fundraising off the back of this. obviously a huge
7:04 pm
spectacle we've got here, we got international and national media, local media, also local people who have their own social media channels that turned up with their iphones, with their self sticks broadcasting themselves, if you have trump supporters, very hard—core trump supporters, very hard—core trump supporters, but there's also those who genuinely do like him and his policies. florida is a very mixed state, you've got different demographics here, particularly in miami you have a strong cuban population that strongly backs him, then you've got those who are anti—trump here, police are doing their best to keep them all apart here. normally it's very busy but it's calm and peaceful.— here. normally it's very busy but it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank ou it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank you for— it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank you for updating _ it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank you for updating us _ it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank you for updating us on - it's calm and peaceful. nomia iqbal, thank you for updating us on what'sl thank you for updating us on what's happened to make a happening there. let's bring you up—to—date, donald trump has entered the courthouse behind those pro—trump supporters. he's been there for about ten minutes or so, he's expected to head
7:05 pm
to the tenth floor where he will then be processed, and after that he will go through the normal process of what one would expect in these types of situations. he will be in the custody of the us marshals. we are being told there won't be a mug shot, the marshals will use an uploaded photo — in fact, the photo they'll use will be the former president's official portrait. we aren't sure whether there will be a dna scan, we have to be cautious in saying that there will be, but we do know he will be denying those 37 counts which include obstructing the government's efforts to get back classified documents which he had retained, some of which apparently allegedly were in a bathroom after he left the white house. live now to alexandria, in virginia, to speak to bryan lanza, former deputy communications directorfor trump's presidential transition team.

7:08 pm
special circumstances created to investigate his campaign, to the russia investigation, now ada with several impeachments. there is documenting time after time, the media and the left trying to target president trump in unprecedented ways, and this is another example. so is it the media who are accusing him of these crimes? i’m so is it the media who are accusing him of these crimes?— so is it the media who are accusing him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media. _ him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media, to _ him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media, to be _ him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media, to be clear, - him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media, to be clear, i - him of these crimes? i'm not saying it's the media, to be clear, ijust - it's the media, to be clear, ijust said it was the buy demonstration pot said it was the buy demonstration .o| , ., said it was the buy demonstration -o- , ., , ., said it was the buy demonstration .o| , ., , ., ., pot you 'ust mentioned the media, sor . i pot you just mentioned the media, sorry. i mentioned _ pot you just mentioned the media, sorry. i mentioned the _ pot you just mentioned the media, sorry. i mentioned the media - pot you just mentioned the media, sorry. i mentioned the media in i pot you just mentioned the media, | sorry. i mentioned the media in the context since _ sorry. i mentioned the media in the context since 2015, _ sorry. i mentioned the media in the context since 2015, the _ sorry. i mentioned the media in the context since 2015, the media - sorry. i mentioned the media in the context since 2015, the media has l context since 2015, the media has drummed up these narratives to reinforce with the left is doing of some of these malfeasance, we are now eight years after the fact, and “p now eight years after the fact, and up until this past year, all these stories that the media and the left has been pushing has now resulted in criminal culpability on the president, and this year when they've changed the laws in new york to extend to go to president trump
7:09 pm
to extend to go to president trump to create a felony which is normally a misdemeanor, ithink to create a felony which is normally a misdemeanor, i think people can objectively say you had the former democratic attorney general of new york saying they're stretching the law to go after president trump. what i'm saying is if you add this component to it, this is another example of the media and the left bending the rules to try and target president trump after eight years. so you're accusing something of happening over the last eight years, and i'm talking about what's happening today. thousands of documents were seized in an fbi search of his florida estate, including 100 marked as classified — if he did nothing wrong, if there was nothing wrong that happens, why notjust hand those back when he was asked for them? hat notjust hand those back when he was asked for them?— asked for them? not saying he didn't do anything wrong. _ asked for them? not saying he didn't do anything wrong, i'm _ asked for them? not saying he didn't do anything wrong, i'm saying - asked for them? not saying he didn't do anything wrong, i'm saying this i do anything wrong, i'm saying this an extension of the political media. with respects to make a respect to the documents, the white house would say they felt they were in negotiation with the archives of
7:10 pm
what documents tends to have and what documents tends to have and what archives the president tends to have, and it was the federal government, the fbi who did not want to do the raid, i think i remember reading those stories, i hope your member that, that the fbi did not want to do the raid, but the doj overruled them. so these raids took place with the trump campaign felt it was in negotiation with the archives. they'll make their case, whether it strong or not is for them to make, but your rating someone in the middle of a negotiation, it doesn't feel like a fair system. he's been accused of showing people who shouldn't even be seeing these documents classified documents, in some cases allegedly to do with foreign enemies of the united states. that to me sounds like a pretty serious accusation, one of the accusations as of him basically
7:11 pm
potentially putting at risk the national security of the united states. these are serious charges, and we are talking about right now, not over the last eight years. what not over the last eight years. what i would not over the last eight years. what i would say — not over the last eight years. what i would say with _ not over the last eight years. what i would say with respect _ not over the last eight years. what i would say with respect to - not over the last eight years. twat i would say with respect to these charges is today is the high water mark for any prosecution. so whatever charges they brought forward with respect to the grand jury, they brought these charges forward without any alternate narrative. they were able to cherry pick what evidence they wanted to create, which is the normal process of a grand jury investigation, they cherry pick their evidence of what they want to present to the grand jury without any type of rebuttal, so that's the high watermark, you're absolutely correct the justice department is making those accusations, but my suspicion is, under disclosures which is our normaljudicial under disclosures which is our normal judicial system under disclosures which is our normaljudicial system and information gathering, we'll find out the narrative they were trying to play has holes in it, and that's the process. that's what i'm saying, yes, he's accused of these things
7:12 pm
and you have the high watermark of the us government with their information today, but after today the information starts to get rebutted against evidence and other information out there. the trumpet ministration has already accused the department ofjustice and department of justice and investigators department ofjustice and investigators of trying to violate laws with respect to gathering some of this evidence. now you're talking about the process that takes place. let's talk about the process taking place, let's talk about the judge whose put into her position by mr trump. will she be able to look at this fairly and give a ruling in a fair and judicious manner? she was confirmed with _ fair and judicious manner? she was confirmed with the _ fair and judicious manner? she was confirmed with the believe - fair and judicious manner? she was confirmed with the believe she i fair and judicious manner? she was l confirmed with the believe she would be able to do that, so we have every reason to believe she will. 50 be able to do that, so we have every reason to believe she will.— reason to believe she will. so she -ushes reason to believe she will. so she pushes this case _ reason to believe she will. so she pushes this case forward - reason to believe she will. so she pushes this case forward to i reason to believe she will. so she pushes this case forward to a i pushes this case forward to a trial, what you say to that?— what you say to that? that's our 'udicial what you say to that? that's our judicial process. _ what you say to that? that's our judicial process. good _ what you say to that? that's our judicial process. good to - what you say to that? that's our judicial process. good to talk i what you say to that? that's our judicial process. good to talk to | judicial process. good to talk to
7:13 pm
ou, judicial process. good to talk to you. thank _ judicial process. good to talk to you. thank you _ judicial process. good to talk to you, thank you very _ judicial process. good to talk to you, thank you very much i judicial process. good to talk to i you, thank you very much indeed, i let you go for now because i want to update viewers on what's been happening outside and inside the courtroom. i'm being told that mr trump has now... yelled at thank you so much forjoining us gleave has now been been officially processed ljy now been been officially processed by the court in the courthouse — it's very interesting to listen to those supportive of mr trump talking about conspiracy theories and what they believe has been pretty much a witchhunt, eric taking it all the way back to 2015. i want to bring in nomia iqbal again. way back to 2015. i want to bring in nomia iqbalagain. i'm sure way back to 2015. i want to bring in nomia iqbal again. i'm sure you didn't hear much of that interview because you're busy, but he is very much a part of that group of supporters, the bubble who believe this is all part of a long
7:14 pm
conspiracy against president trump? there are plenty of supporters here who believe that. one man said to me he thinks that donald trump is being politically persecuted, seeing him as a moses like figure sent from god, and i think it's easy to be incredulous about that source of extreme view, but there are people who have this very large conviction about donald trump. there are those around the country who have a deep mistrust of the state, they look at donald trump... so when he says they're going after me for this and that, they believe it. i asked people over the weekend about the indictment, the fact that he's been accused of holding onto a documents about america's nuclear secrets, also battle plans and other countries, why would a former president want those documents, need those sorts of documents? some of
7:15 pm
them said, "we think he was set up," that's what they think and nothing will change their mind. and trump will change their mind. and trump will immediately use us to fund raise for his campaign. you will probably get the republican voters backing him and he will probably get that nomination, but will he convince enough of the american electorate general to win the white house? that's an entirely different issue. , , ., ., ~ house? that's an entirely different issue. , ., . ., ., issue. just to make it clear to eo - le issue. just to make it clear to people watching _ issue. just to make it clear to people watching this - issue. just to make it clear to people watching this at i issue. just to make it clear to | people watching this at home, issue. just to make it clear to i people watching this at home, he's been processed ahead of his arraignment. does that mean he is under arrest? arraignment. does that mean he is underarrest? because arraignment. does that mean he is under arrest? because arrest is quite a loose term, isn't it? it is, he's considered _ quite a loose term, isn't it? it is, he's considered under _ quite a loose term, isn't it? it is, he's considered under arrest, i he's considered under arrest, considered in custody, technically could be considered a flight risk but he's not, so he will be allowed to leave the state of florida, we believe he's heading back to his second summer home. he does live here in florida but he also has a
7:16 pm
golf resort in newjersey where he is running an event tonight in campaignfundraising, he's is running an event tonight in campaign fundraising, he's expected to deliver comments no doubt about this indictment. to be honest, he's been talking nonstop about the indictment all the way here, lambasting jack smith, who was in court as those charges were read out to him. but yes, he is expected to leave and head back to newjersey. we will hear from him leave and head back to newjersey. we will hearfrom him again, this is something that does work in his favour, you look at the polling after the indictment in new york, his numbers went up amongst the republican base, there's nothing to suggest that won't happen again. also to remind our viewers that this isn't the only department ofjustice case against donald trump, jack smith has also been looking into what role mr trump played in the january 6th capitol riots, and other incredibly serious case as well, and another one in georgia which is more another one in georgia which is more a state level, but it's also about
7:17 pm
whether he tried to overturn democracy. so donald trump is very much mired in a lot of legal troubles. much mired in a lot of legal troubles-— much mired in a lot of legal troubles. ., ., ., ~ troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you very much _ troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you very much indeed. _ troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you very much indeed. we _ troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you very much indeed. we are - troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you| very much indeed. we are waiting troubles. nomia iqbal, thank you i very much indeed. we are waiting for donald trump to exit the building, he has been processed now ahead of his arraignment. you're seeing pictures of his supporters as nomia iqbal mentioned, there are those who are not supporting mr trump at the courthouse, but these pictures very much focusing on theirs who are there to support mr trump. after this process, he will been taken to an airport where he will fly to new jersey, taking off for newjersey in about two hours' time, heading to his second home. and almost immediately, he will start to try and fund raise for his campaign off
7:18 pm
the back of what's happened, so he's very much expecting to galvanise his supporters off the back of this arrangement, rather than lose supporters, which will come as a bit of a surprise. i'm going to leave this story now and lead you to our website, if you are away from the tv and want to hear more about what's happening, for now i want to take you to something else that's been happening here in the uk today. it's been confirmed that two of the three people killed in nottingham were students at the university of nottingham. so far, we know that a 31—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the bodies of three people were found dead in two different streets. the police say three other people are also in hospital after the driver of a van attempted to run them over. believe that the man was dutch van
7:19 pm
was stolen from a 50—year—old man who has died. in the last hour, police has said they are "keeping an open mind" on the motives behind the attack. well, a litter ealier, we had this statement from chief constable kate meynell, of nottinghamshire police. my thoughts are with all the families affected by this horrific incident. and we are working extremely hard to try and understand exactly what has happened. i can tell you that a 31—year—old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in police custody. we are not looking for anyone else in connection with the attacks, and i can reassure the public that it is safe to visit the city centre. there may be some road restrictions in place as we continue to establish exactly what has happened. at the moment, we believe that the suspect has stolen this man's vehicle and driven it to milton street, where he has been
7:20 pm
driven at members of the public. we are still in the early stages of the investigation and need to determine exactly what the motives were behind this attack. we are keeping an open mind and are working closely with counter—terrorism policing to establish the facts as we would normally do in this type of circumstances. i want to thank those who live and work in our city for their patience and understanding in incredibly difficult circumstances. we will, of course, keep the public updated as soon as we are able to say anything further. this is a very sad day for our city, and we will do everything possible to getjustice for the victims and theirfamilies. live now to reverend paul williams, from the diocese of southwell and nottingham. thank you very much forjoining us, he recently held a vigil for the victims of this attack, a very sombre evening. talk us through the
7:21 pm
mood. i’m sombre evening. talk us through the mood. �* . ., mood. i'm here in the centre of nottingham. — mood. i'm here in the centre of nottingham, st. _ mood. i'm here in the centre of nottingham, st. peter's - mood. i'm here in the centre of| nottingham, st. peter's church, wherejust nottingham, st. peter's church, where just a few hours ago hundreds of people poured into the church. many young people, many students — and what was felt probably by this place is the grief and the shock that has reverberated across the city of nottingham today. and in this place, hearts, thoughts and prayers went directly to those affected in this horrific incident today, and particularly for those grieving which included many of the students, friends who lost their lives, others who — we are now praying for those seriously injured, and just a sense of being together. and we are here in a city which is
7:22 pm
known forfriendship, and we are here in a city which is known for friendship, it's the friendly city, and when students come to live here for a few years in study here or whether there are people who have grown up in nottingham or come to live here, it's a young, vibrant city. but no one could have imagined when they woke up this morning that they would've found themselves at this vigil tonight and living in a city that has, in many ways, shuddered at the horror unfolding today. reverend, faith is key in dealing with grief. what do you want to send out to those in nottingham, but also those watching this who are saddened and worried about what happened? there's no question that people look to faith, people of all faith and no faith at a time to reach out, looking for comfort, looking for
7:23 pm
some hope. and in this church tonight, amongst those hundreds of students and young people who came from across the city, many brought forward flowers, but also very poignantly many lit candles which i think not only is thereunder, remembering those who lost their lives and to pray for their family and friends, but also i think a really significant thing, a symbol of faith certainly for christians and people of other faiths. for christians, it's a reminder that light shines in the darkness, and today it's been a beautifully sunny day in nottingham, but it's been a dark day. but i think with those candles very movingly reminded us is that there is a light that keeps shining, and that shines when the darkness seems to overwhelm us. and of course, for people of faith, for christians, they are a reminder of god's light shining in the night.
7:24 pm
but there were people here tonight of different faiths and no faith coming together, a collective outpouring of grief and shock, and a city that pulls together when it faces hard times. there's something about nottingham — i've served here and been part of the city for the past eight years, and people pull together across the county, and we've seen that today in the face of such tragic, horrendous circumstances. people talking to strangers in the street, just sharing the sense of profound shock, but also people coming together to support one another.— but also people coming together to support one another. reverend paul williams, it's _ support one another. reverend paul williams, it's good _ support one another. reverend paul williams, it's good to _ support one another. reverend paul williams, it's good to talk _ support one another. reverend paul williams, it's good to talk to - support one another. reverend paul williams, it's good to talk to you, i williams, it's good to talk to you, albeit on a very sad occasion. thank you. thank you. bringing you some pictures through the interview of what's happening outside the
7:25 pm
courthouse in the us, let's take you back there very briefly now, these are the scenes live outside the courthouse, there we go, these are protesters and supporters of donald trump. as always, go to page for the latest, stay with us on the bbc. hello there. it's been a dry day for many parts of the uk today. and in the sunshine, we have seen the temperatures soaring. we reached a milestone today because, for the first time ever on 13june, the temperature in the uk topped 30 celsius. we reached that milestone in west wales, but also into sussex. fewer storms around, but they have been going across parts of the highlands, some thunderstorms and some very heavy rain. also had a few storms across the western side of northern ireland. but higher pressure building across from scandinavia, tending to ease those storms away and introduce some slightly fresher air, so it should be a bit more comfortable for sleeping. overnight tonight, after those storms move away, it'll be dry, clear.
7:26 pm
a little bit, misty in the southwest and maybe up towards some northeastern parts of scotland. but otherwise, clear skies, slightly fresher air, losing that humidity. so temperatures will be a bit lower, and maybe getting down as low as nine celsius in the north east of england. and over the next few days, we keep this warm, dry and sunny picture going, but it will be cooler at night. and so, as we head into wednesday, sunny skies for much of the uk. the winds are quite light, coming in on an easterly breeze across east anglia and the southeast, 1—2 bits of fair weather cloud developing in the south, and a small chance of a shower up towards the highlands where temperatures will be 211—25 celsius. could make 30 celsius perhaps in the southeast of england, around the london area. but on thursday, it's a similar sort of story again — dry, sunny conditions, the winds very light, starting to warm up in the eastern side of the uk, chance of a storm later in the hills of wales, and perhaps for northern ireland. but those temperatures are beginning to lift across eastern areas, and we're looking at generally highs of 26—27 celsius.
7:27 pm
things may start to change by the end of the week, higher pressure retreating away, this area of low pressure trying to push in from the atlantic — that's likely to bring more cloud through the day on friday for western parts of the uk, maybe some heavy showers, northern ireland, far west of england and wales, and perhaps into the southwest of scotland. further east, still dry, should be dry for the start of the test match at edgbaston, in the ashes, and temperatures across the eastern side of the uk will be reaching 26—27 celsius again. into the weekend, things do start to change — we're looking at showers developing in more of the uk, and that showery theme continues into next week. latest year on bbc news. i will be
